Howdy All, I'm from Conroe, Tx. This is my 3rd van and I've finally found the right one that will serve me till the end of my life. I found a one owner van that a nice lady ordered new in 1989. She's a Chevy 1/2 ton cargo van with 70,000 miles with a showroom new interior. She's got some dents and bumps, but nothing I can't fix myself. I took her to my buddy's shop and when we got her on the rack one of the guys said, "I don't think she's ever even been on a dirt road." The small block is strong and she starts and runs like a dream. I look forward to talking to you all as I've been lurking here the past few days. I really want to see the snowboard wing by Native Son, but I can't find any photo of it! Later...

Welcome stonervan. You should come to the Texas Van Federation Beach Bash at Crystal Beach Labor day weekend if you can.

Wow, what a welcome! As for the beach bash, I will try to come out but I don't have seats for my kids so I might be "Man Solo" in the white falcon. I've already started constructing my bed, made a curtain rod behind the seats, and put a KISS sticker on the back window. Unfortunately or maybe fortunately she still has the Chevy dog dish hub caps. So far I've greased the bearings, bought new tires and run a new cat back with larger pipe and cherry bomb, painted the back windows so the boogey man doesn't peep in and tinted the windows. I fixed the big dents with a rubber mallet. My first big project will be fixing the a/c. I'm really wanting to do a wing, but I'm looking for something different. Thanks everyone!
